I'm not saying Galarraga was a good signing. I'm only saying I understand
why they'd want a right handed bat in the middle of the lineup. Like I said,
I'd rather they moved Lopez up than to have signed the Old Cat.
Lots and lots of speculation on the Internet that Klesko's days are numbered,
particularly since they probably can't afford him anymore, and the Galarraga
signing showing they don't want him as their answer at 1b. I wouldn't be
surprised to see JS make another stupid trade in the near future, with Klesko
involved. I wouldn't even be surprised if Mr. Punch & Judy, Otis Nixon, is
on the other end of the deal.
... Marcus Allen throws it in the endzone... Touchdown, Kaaansaaas Ciiity!
